Wheeler Dealers is now stationed in the USA, so their vehicle
fixing/flipping is more relevant than when they were in the UK.  Just
worked on muscling up a '73 Camaro.

Yeah I think that is it.  Motorweek do track tests there sometimes. 
Speaking of which, I have not seen that show for ages, it used to be on 
the local PBS on Saturday evenings.

How about this place
http://gorally.com/
Don't know anything about them but they have been there at 
Keystone airport for a long time and used to be some kind of 
special invitation or gov only training facility .

They use part of the old WW2 AAF base for their track.

I couldn't do it with the spouse. I would end up a quivering mass 
of jelly.


I do think a day at Bondurant's defensive driving school at 
Sebring would be money well spent, however.

Roebling Road is the one you might be thinking of. Got a chance 
to drive my 83 300D around there when my daughter was invited 
there as a part of the wounded warriors project. That 
organization really does do a lot for our service members and 
their families. I know and still support them.

There's a track down around Savannah, I don't know if they do 
track days

to) there.
